Two Tiny Dedicated Router Tables

To get the most from the routers I don’t use any more because they are awkward to use (installing bits and/or height adjustments), I decided to build two tiny router tables in which I could permanently leave those routers as dedicated stations. Wow, I’m so glad I did it.

One station will be dedicated to joint boards (man made materials, which I can’t use on my jointer) and the other for pattern routing with a flush trim bit.

@Diggerjacks: Since one router table is dedicated to free hand template routing with a flush trim bit, no fence is required. However, since the second router table is dedicated to joint edges of man made materials, the only missing part is a stick on which I will drill a half moon hole on one edge to sink the router bit in and mill the leading end of the fence about 1/16’’ back from the trailing end. To joint, I will only need to align the trailing end with the cutters of the router bit. When done I will add it here.

By the way, my nest post on my website will be looking at several options for router table fences, including the above.
